Storing the Detergent
For best results, keep your detergent container tightly closed after each use, out of reach of children and stored in a cool, dry place. Storage under the sink is not advisable for powdered detergent, because this area is generally too warm and moist to keep detergent fresh.
Rinse Agent
A rinse agent causes water to flow off the dishes more quickly, preventing droplets that dry as spots and improving drying performance. Rinse agent come in solid and liquid forms. Your dishwasher’s rinse agent dispenser uses the liquid form. Rinse agent used with soft water can cause a cloudy film on dishes.

Adjusting the Dosage of Rinse Agent
The rinse agent dosage is set by the manufacturer and is dispensed automatically into the final rinse. If necessary, the rinse agent dosage can be adjusted by inserting a screwdriver inside the filler hole where the adjustment device is set on “2.” It is recommended that the dial be adjusted only one number at a time.
